Who is this document for?

EnShell is a technology that enables EnSight to run in diverse distributed environments. An individual competent with Python and/or shell scripting languages and who has a good technical understanding of the site's computational infrastructure must configure it for a particular site. End-users of EnSight normally use a simple program, ceistart for EnSight, to interactively graphically start EnSight using EnShell once it has been properly configured. This document gives a comprehensive overview of EnShell along with details on configuring it for a site. End-users can usually forgo reading this document and instead use simple site-provided instruction on how to launch EnSight if EnShell is employed and properly configured.
